[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No I wouldn't do it. I love my kid and want to parent my own kid. Who cares about a stupid family tradition. [/quote] OP here. Thanks to most of the PPs. To this PP, however, I want to say: There is no family tradition. DH and I both went to public schools all the way through on the GT track, which has its own issues. The child we are talking about here is very mature, very independent, and very attached to her mother. She's also a top-notch student at a DC independent school. Ultimately, she will decide if she wants to go to boarding school once I tell her these things exist. This thread was about whether I should. If she chooses to go away, it will almost kill me. But for this kid, if she chooses it, it is the right thing. I wouldn't say that about my other kids (or at least not yet), but this is about this particular child.[/quote]
